World War III by Houman Seyedi.
Finally, and after roughly one-year anticipation I managed to watch the latest work of one of my favorite Iranian directors 'Houman Seyedi'.
It called 'World War III', but I would call it 'How can be a Hitler?' My expectation after watching 'Sheeple' the last work of Seyedi was so high and I must admit that now I'm Satisfied.
The Film Believably shows the gradual changes of 'Shakib'-starred by 'Mohsen Tanabandeh'- goes through. From a kind supportive man who does anything to delight her homeless deaf partner 'Ladan' he turns into a cruel, cold-heartted 'Hitler' who can even does a massacre.
The film warns audience again and again that being a nice person in a nice situation is 'Nothing'. And I've never felt It is a motto while watching the movie.
"Caution, Spoiler Ahead" I was really touched by a scene where Shakib And Ladan are sitting next to a fire and Ladan confesses that she told a lie to Shakib. Ladan says "At First I wanted that house but now you're the only thing I want.
And The ending sequence was breathtaking where you see Shakib in the outfit of Hitler sits behind the lunch table and watches his massacre.
